Description: Express Shipping Worldwide is Free The World of Norman Lindsay Edited by Lin Bloomfield Published by The Macmillan Company of Australia Pty Ltd, Melbourne, 1979 First Edition with the dustjacket With a 1979 exhibition catalogue at The La Trobe Library, in five pages A superb collection of Norman Lindsay's work comprising some 93 plates, many full page and 10 in full colour. Please note there is a lot of reflection in the photographs due to the glossy nature of the paper. Bloomfield's introduction states: "this book, while briefly discussing every aspect of [Lindsay's] work and endeavouring to indicate the scope and breadth of his genius, is also very much a 'family' book; 'family' in the sense that while many of the contributors were his friends, relatives or associates, all of them in fact relate in the capacity to either the Lindsay family or myself. My aim has been to reveal as much as possible of the man himself: down to earth, shunning hypocrisy and humbug, impatient with pretension...". The volume includes eighteen essays and memoirs about aspects of the artist's life and work, letters by Norman Lindsay to his daughter and an extract from an unpublished manuscript; contributors include Eleanor Witcombe, Rodney Cavalier, Jane Lindsay, Helen Glad, Douglas Stewart, Walter Stone and George Enyi.
